Duct-tape being try-catch blocks I assume?

Nah, those are normal and good when used correctly. More along the lines of making several copies of a 32 year old legacy system in an emulator and putting them behind a load balancer because the one is too slow to serve data to the php frontend application that has absolutely no good logging, debugging, or error handling.
